IDF Operations in the Jenin Refugee Camp and Nablus
IDF forces are continuing their operations in the Jenin refugee camp, which have involved continuous fighting over the last five days.

In the course of the fighting in the refugee camp, many laboratories used to produce explosives, Kassam missiles, explosive belts, car bombs and explosive devices were uncovered. In addition, a primitive mortar and many personal weapons were found.

Tonight, through the camp's public address system, the IDF again asked the armed terrorists to surrender themselves, thereby avoiding additional loss of life and damage. The IDF forces pledged that all those choosing to surrender would not be harmed.

A short time later, a number of armed terrorists began to exit the buildings of the camp and surrender themselves to the IDF soldiers.

In addition, in the course of IDF operations in Nablus, a laboratory for the production of explosives was uncovered. Among the items seized were many explosive devices, chemicals and a cache of RPGs.
